Add active class to dropdown menu items for current page

[914digital]

Hey. Thanks for Navwalker. It is a god send. So my issue:

With the release of the new Bootstrap 4, the dropdowns don't have an li class for current_page_item like on parent items. Is there any way to add an active class to a submenu item on click? I've messed around with some jQuery. The issue: If the page is refreshed, it loses the active class.

Again, thanks for making this available to everyone.

The dropdowns do have have the active class:

This is a demo website using bootstrap 4 and the custom bootstrap navwalker:

Make sure you're actually using the custom navwalker:

'walker' => new WP_Bootstrap_Navwalker(),

Note: Still a bug.

Bootstrap provides CSS for .dropdown-item.active but not for .active .dropdown-item. The Walker sets the active class on the <li> instead of the <a> leading to .active .dropdown-item.
